Marta and Brad in Sydney


























See, we told you we would post Marta and Brad photos soon, and you guys didn't believe us. Well here are the photos from the first week and a half of their visit. Some of the sights might be easily recognizable, while others may not be. So starting in chronological order, well almost, Marta and Brad wandering around Saint Mary's Cathedral admiring the lighting before taking a photo by the Pope who left Sydney a week before after causing no small amount of chaos. M&B browsing the selection at the local Bentley dealer. Then at the Customs House KT&M writing notes to put on exhibit as M&B look around. Next KT does an elephant impression at Circular Quay to earn enough for an ice cream fix. B enjoying his time in the sun at Circular Quay before boarding the ferry for a pleasant ride. Over the weekend we went to the Blue Mountains to wander around, KT took the opportunity to take a light jog, while M had fun with her camera as KT looked on with amusement. A couple of group photos on the rocks before the proof that there is such a thing as too much clean air. Some side effects may include random "Jazz Hands" and funny walking. M decides a break is in order to relieve symptoms, and to prepare for the view of the Three Sisters. A couple of photos on the giants steps going to one of the sisters. Deep in thought over a word puzzle, enjoying the wonderful golden sunlight in the Megalong Valley. A couple of nice photos from a lookout over looking the Megalong Valley. KT&M dress up as twins and head out for another excursion, this time to Palm Beach. In the first photo they scour the beach for treasure, and instead come away with shells and smiles, although cold smiles. The last photo is M trying to blend in with the surroundings ready to ambush someone with her plant spear at the Baha'i temple, one of only seven around the world. Until next time folks, take care and don't forget to look at the awesome bridges from the previous post. Or at least vote on the poll.

Spaghetti Bridge Comp.









Here are the photos from the spaghetti bridge building contest from TV's work. These photos have been a long time coming but here they finally are. The first bridge is the one that TV and his team built. The only things allowed were spaghetti and glue. TV's bridge held 15 times it's weight. The winning bridge held 130 times it's weight, it was the one in the last photo. Every one had a good time designing and building the bridges, and an even better time breaking them with almost everyone from the company watching. Good times. Stay tuned for the first photos from Brad and Marta's visit to OZ.
